tonometer
tonometer
Noun
pl: tonometers
This term is a specialized medical instrument used primarily in ophthalmology. It is used in clinical settings to detect glaucoma by measuring the resistance of the cornea to a given force, which reflects the fluid pressure inside the eye.
Because it is a technical piece of equipment, the word is almost exclusively used by healthcare professionals or in medical literature. It does not have a common colloquial equivalent and is rarely encountered in general conversation outside of a diagnostic context.
